Animal electricity is impaired by
careful manipulation of the muscles,
performed by gently stretching them
with both hands. This produces an
elasticity of action which causes them
to rise. thereby increasing their
power to act. Women, whose fln-

best impart electricity to their chill.

Tho nerves are prostratcd they can be
